We usually get a few dozen boats moored in the Cove on the 4th of July. This year, it was just a few. Seems the recession has reached the sea.

The standout was this lovely two-masted sailboat, which stayed a few days. And yes, I know the horizon's a bit tilted. I'll blame the rare appearance of that bright yellow orb in the sky -- what's it called? The sun? Made me tipsy.
